1. A method for signaling connection establishment in a home gateway, said home gateway being comprised in a radiocommunication network, the method comprising:
- receiving, at said home gateway, a request from a home base station to establish a signaling connection towards a core network node, said request including information associated with a reason for requesting establishment of said signaling connection; and
determining, at said home gateway, whether to establish said signaling connection based upon said information and a load status associated with at least one of;
(a) said home gateway and (b) said core network node in said radiocommunication network.

Abstract
Systems and methods for handling signaling connection establishment in systems which include home gateways (502, 800) are described. A request is received, by a home gateway (502, 800), to establish a signaling connection, which request includes a reason for requesting establishment of that signaling connection. The home gateway (502, 800) determines whether to establish the signaling connection based upon that reason plus a load status of at least one of the home gateway (502, 800) itself and a core network node (208).

12. A home gateway comprising:
-
a first interface configured to transmit signals to, and receive signals from, a plurality of home base stations, said signals including a request to establish a signaling connection, said request including information associated with a reason for requesting establishment of said signaling connection; a second interface configured to transmit signals to, and receive signals from, at least one core network node associated with a radiocommunication network; and at least one processor configured to determine whether to establish said signaling connection based upon said information and a load status associated with at least one of;
(a) said home gateway and (b) said at least one core network node. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
